Do you eat chocolate? Yes & no ?!

“Forbidden” food? Intuitive eating?

There’s always some mystery with “forbidden” things. When someone tells me to do something, then I almost always have the temptation to do something the opposite way. Yes, of course when it’s reasonable, then I have to do it. However, I will still try to make some twist. I don’t like to be told to do something. The end.

Four Tendencies? Rebel?

I’m quite sure that this “forbidden” thing depends on the person. For example, this book about “Four Tendencies” by Gretchen Rubin explains the personalities quite well. It demonstrates how the four main personality types upholders, questioners, obligers, and rebels react to certain situations.

There might be some connection between “forbidden” food and personality as well. For example, if you say I can’t eat chocolate, then I would most definitely ignore you. For that reason, I don’t like to forbid the chocolate in my life as well. When I want chocolate, then I will eat it. Still, I usually choose some healthier alternative. In most cases, I buy my raw cocoa butter and make homemade chocolate. Otherwise, I don’t care about it anymore.

What’s my hack? No “forbidden” food?

What I’m trying to say is that “forbidden” food mentality might work differently on every person. When I forbid something for myself, then it just doesn’t work.

I’m stubborn

I would always have the temptation to do something my way. I’m stubborn & I know it. Still, it doesn’t mean that everyone is similar in this kind of situation. You have to find your hack.

All I can do is share some healthier “chocolate” recipes with you that I love. For that reason, I came up with another chocolate-inspired recipe to make sure I can eat more of it.

Sugar addition? Healthy alternatives?

Over the last 4 years, I have been working my “sugar addiction”. I ate way too much sugar that I started to lose my focus. For that reason, my life “mission” has been to discover some healthier alternatives for classic white sugar.

Natural Sugars?

Yes, I know that honey & dates are still full of sugars. However, I believe that these two are more natural than white sugar. Still, it’s always a better choice in reasonable amounts (more about this topic for example here).

Yes, I love cookies. I can eat them all day long. However, I still have to use the "cookies" on my website as well to ensure that you get the best experience. Therefore, if you continue to use this site, I will assume that you don't have anything against cookies as well.OkPrivacy policy
